Conway's Game of Life in TypeScript's type system
TypeScript playground: https://www.typescriptlang.org/play?#code/KYDwDg9gTgLgBDAnmY...
In plain words
Conway's Game of Life in TypeScript's type system is an implementation of the classic cellular automaton encoded within TypeScript's compile-time type system rather than runtime code. It is designed for developers interested in exploring TypeScript's advanced type capabilities and functional programming concepts. The project demonstrates how complex computational logic can be expressed through type-level programming, making it a technical showcase for TypeScript enthusiasts seeking to understand the language's deeper features.

Hi HN, when learning Golang (and topology), I ported a simple GOL in C (https://github.com/Jeadie/GoL) into Go. I then added a bunch of features - Playing on other fundamental polygons (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_polygon#Examples_o...) - Considering all possible update rules (of which, there are many). Looking to get back to this project soon. Would love some feedback + ideas.
